BIO-NOVON
Bio-mass Masterbatch
What is BIO-NOVON
BIO-NOVON is a bio-based masterbatch that utilizes plant-derived materials, offering an eco-friendly alternative to traditional plastics. With a 95% biocarbon content, BIO-NOVON not only supports environmental sustainability but also maintains the quality and functionality required for various plastic applications, driving the industry towards a greener future.

Bio-mass content
BIO-NOVON is made from plant-based materials, with a biocarbon content of up to 95% in its PP/PE grade, verified by ASTM D6866. This high biobased content emphasizes its sustainability, reducing reliance on petroleum resources and supporting environmentally friendly manufacturing practices.
Adding BIO-NOVON
Be part of carbon cycle
Using BIO-NOVON to increase the biobased content of products promotes a more natural carbon cycle. Bioplastics are made from plant materials that absorb CO₂ during growth. When these plastic products are used and eventually disposed of, the CO₂ released is roughly equal to what the plants absorbed, achieving carbon neutrality. This helps reduce atmospheric carbon accumulation and mitigates climate change, thereby supporting a more sustainable carbon cycle.
BIO-NOVON
How it works
According to the “Bioplastics Introduction Roadmap” proposed by Japan’s Ministry of the Environment, plants absorb CO₂ during growth to form carbohydrates, which are released back into the atmosphere upon combustion, achieving carbon neutrality. This leads to the following conclusions:
Biocarbon content ratio = Carbon dioxide reduction ratio
Examples：
10% BIO-NOVON + 90% Fossil-based Polyethylene
Could reduce 10% x 95% = 9.5% CO₂
20% BIO-NOVON + 80% Fossil based polyethylene
Could reduce 20% x 95% =19% of CO₂

High Bio-content
With a bio-carbon content of 95% as certified by ASTM D 6866, BIO-NOVON leads in reducing reliance on fossil-based plastics, enhancing sustainability in plastic production.
Carbon Neutral
BIO-NOVON achieves carbon neutrality by balancing the carbon emitted during its lifecycle with the carbon absorbed during the growth of its plant-based sources, supporting global efforts against climate change.
Versatility in Application
Suitable for mixing with conventional plastics like PP and PE, BIO-NOVON can be used in various products, maintaining the desired physical properties while being environmentally friendly.
Reduction of Carbon Footprint
BIO-NOVON significantly lowers the carbon footprint in plastic production by utilizing bio-based materials which absorb CO2 during their growth. This contributes to reducing greenhouse gas emissions and supports environmental sustainability efforts.
